ST.. PAUL and Minneapolis will "spread
themselves in the fullest sense of the
term while entertaining President Cleve-
land on October 10th and 18th. The
magnificent system Of illumination used
during the state fair and exposition will
be used, the lamps to be left in place
until after the presidents visit. Many
handsome designs and brilliant side
street illuminations will be added, and it
is reasonable to believe that the twin
cities will give the nations chief execu-
tive reception unsurpassed in brilliancy
and enthusiasm by any point which he
will visit on the trip. Many Bismarck
ers will be in the city to witness the
grand display, and Dakota will be
represented by the thousands.

The result of the Northern Pacific
election leads to the belief that Mr.. T. f.
Oakes, at present vice president, will
soon be elevated to the presidency. It lis
said that Mr.. Harris intends to hold that
position for short time until the COM
pletion of the Cascade division. Mr..
Oakes will be satisfactory to the people
of the northwest. He is a western man
and understands the needs of the coun-
try through which the road runs. There
ought to be radical change in the land
policy. The Northern Pacific country is
not receiving it's share of immigration.
1t is admitted by the traffic manager that
every cultivated acre of land is worth So
per annum to the company. If the land
is sold outright to Spectators the COM
pany receives only about this sum. The
speoulator holds it say ten years. Thus
the company receives So in ten years,
while if the land was given to actual set
tiers it would receive $50 in ten years
for so much of it as is put under cultiva-
tion. A liberal land policy will settle all
the vacant lands of the company in the
next three years. Prosperous towns
would then grow up along the line, and
the increase of local traffic would more
than make up for this loss of through
business which competition incident tc
the completion of more through lines
will bring.

The conviction of one of the men en-
gagged in the Haddock murder conspiracy
in Sioux City is indeed severe blow for
Mr.. Arensdorf, in whose case the Jury
disagreed and who will be tried again
during the November term. With the
Haddock murderers rapidly nearing the
rope, the anarchists sat upon by the su-
preme court of Illinois and the st. Paul
and Minneapolis people in arms against
their wrong-doers, it begins to look as
though the way of the transgressor may
be hard from this time on, for short
time at least.

HE people of Minneapolis are this
week enjoying dramatic treat such as is
rarely enjoyed by a community, in the
performances by the Booth-Barrett COM
bination. Edwin Booth is growing old,
the light of his great genius will soon be
extinguished, and it is no wonder that
the people of the entire northwest are
hocking to Minneapolis to witness his
performances, especially as he is sup
ported by SO eminent an actor as Law
renee Barrett.

During the years of his retirement he

HE Judiciary bill drafted by Judge
Palmer Of the Sioux Falls district, to be
presented to congress, is endorsed by the
associate justices and by the people. It
will, if enacted, bring relief to the nov
over worked judges of the territory. It
provides for an increased number of
judges and does away with the practice
of Judge acting as supreme judge and
sitting upon review of case appealed
from himself, The bill provides for an
independent appellate court. Judge
Clifford will give it his earnest attention
and endeavor to get it passed during the

Good breeding is the result of much

They have another milk scare in Eng
land. Not long ago the authorities
traced a scarlet fever epidemic to an
infected dairy. Now they have con-
nected diphtheria with the same source.
Out of 90 families supplied with milk
from local dairy 30 were afflicted with
the malady, while there were no cases
in the neighborhood in houses which
received their milk supply from other
sources. A final decision as to the
origin of the disease had not been
reached at last accounts, but the vet
erinary surgeons notes point to infec-
tion as the result of the cows drinking
water from stream polluted by drain
age from privies.
